Third Gorillaz album on the way?

It looks like we may soon have yet another monkey-related
audiovisual delight to look forward to: Damon Albarn and
Jamie Hewlett have both revealed they are zooming into 'phase three' with Gorillaz.

While promoting Monkey: Journey To The West album in Canada,
Damon told
CBCNews: "We're doing another Gorillaz record. We came
back from summer holidays and realized we could do exactly
what we wanted to do with Gorillaz. Essentially, Jamie just
had to agree to draw the characters again. ’Cause I just do
what I do anyway."

"I’m so f---ing bored of drawing those characters," Jamie
added. "But then we had a moment where we had a new angle on
it."

The pair were ordered to be tight-lipped about their new
album plans: "When we told the record company, they went “Woohoo!”
– you could hear them shouting in the background – and then
said, “Don’t tell anybody!"

Remember, even if this is very exciting news for Gorillaz
fans, do not hold your breath
just
yet. If
there will be a new record, it certainly won't be
out before 2010.
